Ordering of cells in Proc Sgpanel

VD — Mon, 25 Jun 2012 10:29:57 GMT

Hello, In the output panel, I want the values of the variable 'Comp' displayed for each cell in the panel. But I want the cells to appear in order of the values of another variable 'Seq'. The dataset is ordered by Seq. I have used the following code but the cells I get are ordered by Comp. Please could you give any suggestions on how this could be implemented?

PROC SGPANEL DATA=all2 NOCYCLEATTRS NOAUTOLEGEND ;

PANELBY Comp / ROWS = 2 COLUMNS = 3 NOVARNAME ONEPANEL UNISCALE=ALL ;

SCATTER X=Location_F Y=AdjLocation_H;

SERIES X=MinAxis Y=MaxAxis; RUN;

Thanks.

(ps: the HTML editor here did not allow me to paste the code in color directly from the SAS editor).

SGPANEL automatically displays the cells in ascending order of the panel variable. If your "Seq" variable has values in numeric order (just to be safe) and correctly aligned with "Comp", create a user defined format and assign each value in "Seq" the appropriate string from "Comp". Use "Seq" as the panel variable in PANELBY.
